Boozman presses fresh farm-bill vote as SNAP disputes and AI bets reshape Capitol week

Senate Agriculture Chair John Boozman plans another committee vote on his GOP farm bill next week to push farm-friendly provisions despite Democrats’ opposition to SNAP cuts and the absence of Sen. Mitch McConnell; Democrats want a two-year delay for the SNAP cost-share requirement, Boozman counters with a one-year delay. The digest also flagships House GOP leader Tom Emmer’s stance on term-limit waivers, Hawley’s call for more detail on OpenAI’s Hugging Face cyberattack, Cruz’s push for AI regulation, a data-center moratorium ad in Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick’s race, and Donald Trump’s pledge to send $5,000 checks if Republicans hold Congress.
